What should I upload?

Please upload clear photos of all pages of your V5 document. We cannot accept just the green "New Keeper Slip". Make sure your photos include:

  • The front page

  • The inside pages with vehicle and keeper details

  • The back page

We need to see all the information provided by the DVLA.
